Castell de Tàrbena (Sa caseta des moros)
Spain, Spain
Castell de Tàrbena, known locally as Sa Caseta des Moros or the Moors' Hut, consists of the ruins of a small Islamic-era defensive structure perched on a hilltop above the whitewashed mountain village of Tàrbena in Alicante province, Valencian Community, Spain.
Dating to the medieval Moorish period when it served as a lookout post amid the Marina Alta's rugged sierras to spot invaders and protect nearby settlements, the sparse remnants of stone walls blend into the landscape offering sweeping panoramic views.
Popular today as a short scenic hike destination through olive groves and pine forests, it evokes Tàrbena's Moorish heritage alongside local trails to ancient springs and the dramatic Coll de Rates pass.
